Firefox flatpak?
by Chris Murphy 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

My memory must be getting soft. It's telling me that there was a firefox flatpak somewhere but google searching is telling me otherwise. And I also found this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1278719 So, maybe it is, or will be, a Fedora created flatpak if the Mozilla folks aren't on the case? -- Chris Murphy

Gnome-shell extenstions in Gnome-software
by Ryan Lerch 08 Dec '16

08 Dec '16

Hi all, Just wondering a few things about the extensions that are available for download in gnome software: * Are these just from extensions.gnome.org? or a mix of the extensions we have packaged in the Fedora repos, with others from the extensions.gnome.org website? * In both cases, (extenstions.gnome.org & the repos) where is the appdata coming from that shows them in gnome-software? * what would be the best way to get more of the extenstions showing in gnome-software? package them up in Fedora, with appdata? * how does a contributor help with this, i.e. adding things like screenshots, AFAICT none of the extenstions have screenshots. cheers, ryanlerch

I would also like to discuss the wallpaper cleanup that I proposed a while back, but fizzled. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/desktop/2015-January/011477.html --ryanlerch On Sat., 3 Dec. 2016 at 6:09 am, Ryan Lerch <rlerch(a)redhat.com> wrote: > I > > On Sat., 3 Dec. 2016 at 12:56 am, Paul W.

Mea culpa, I had forgotten to square our time with the #fedora-meeting room availability. It's in use during our meeting time, so we'll just meet in our own channel, #fedora-workstation. -- Paul W.

Remove the chains of opression: Gnome Online Accounts is spyware
by dwella＠cock.li 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Gnome Online Accounts is spyware. As simple as that. You can remove those packages in all the other distributions, BUT NOT ON FEDORA. Only Fedora can't handle it, the removal of the mentioned package would also remove gnome-shell. This is oppression by design. Since it is not possible to add custom OAuth providers to the Gnome Online Accounts GUI without rebuilding the source, I see no use for it personally. For me, it is spyware. I would never connect my machine to Google, Microsoft or any NSA outlets. No thank you.

List moderation
by Paul W. Frields 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

I made two changes to the list configuration this morning. First was to make confirmation + moderator approval for subscription requests. The second was to distribute owner privileges to a larger number of people. If any WG members would like to join that group, please let me know. -- Paul W.
